Description
The standard model of electroweak interactions, with the gauge and Higgs bosons appearing as composites, is derived from a Nambu--Jona-Lasinio--type four-fermion interaction, assumed to be valid above a high scale μ. Simple relationships are found for the composite-boson-to-top-quark-mass ratios and for the weak angle, sin2θW=3/8 as in grand unified theories. These relationships are evolved with the full renormalization group down to present experimental energies, yielding predictions for the top-quark and Higgs-boson masses, near 160 GeV for the former and near 140 GeV for the latter
